the lower house of the Illinois Legis-
lature today, while discussing q reso'
luton Of thanks to Senator Cullom in
connection with the interstate COM
merce bill, a member read an Asscci-
ated Press dispatch dated Washington,
January 26.h, setting forth that the
Legislative Committee Of the Knights
of Labor had requested President
Cleveland to veto the interstate COM
merce bill. Dixon, of Cook, leader of
the Labor party in the House, brand
ed the dispatch as falsehood, and
said that it had been promulgated in
the interest of monopolists. Rsprs-
sentative Biiley, one Of his lieutsn-
ants, thought that Mr., Dixon was mis-.

A Labor Resolution That Did Not
Pass

CHICAGO, January 27.-Tfe follow.
ing is the full text Of the resolutions
introduced in the Labor Convention
at Springfield yesterday by d. ID. Linn:
WHEREAS, AS hundreds of labor
organic tons have protested against
the verdict condemning the seven so
called anarchists in Chicago to death
as unwsrranted by the evidence as pro-
duced by class hatred and the clamor
of vindictive press and dangerous to
the right of free speech; therefore,
Resolved, Tnat it is the sentiment Of
the organized labor of Illinois that the
public peace, as we'll as justice, de-
mands that a new trial should be
granted, and more impartial and dis
passionate sitting OF the evidence be
secured.
WHEREAS, In his message to the
Legislature, Gov. Oglesby says: "The
many signs of the willingness OF a por-
ton of our people, especially of incor-
porsted wealth, to impatiently de.
mand the use OF the militia in all
cases OF threatened or real violence,
without an effort to secure the protec-
ton of the law thl ough the civil forms
provided By law, is sn unpleasant
aueury, and enc 10 be constantly
watched by the ardent friends of con-
stitutional liberty. The fact that such
incorporated wealth can command q
portion of the press to malign, mis-
represent and aim to intimate any who
feel it a solemn duty to execute the
law by observing law is potent in
5ication OF no common evil therefore,
Resolved, That we most emphatically
denounce this growing tendency on
the part of incorporated wealth to
rely upon force 70, the purpose of iu-
timidating the people as inimical to
the perpt tuity of our institutions, and
calculated to bread discomfort and
class hatred, and we furthermore call
upon the Legislature to investigate
both the propriety and legality OF pri-
vats individuals, especially the Pink
eiton Detective Agency, employing
aud arming a mercenary force whose
sole use Is TO ovetawe workmen who
may have disputes with monopolies
and corporations who, without such
aid, already possess control over the
means of living.
The resolutions were considered
separately.
A delegate raised point of order
that the matter was out of order, as it
was not in accordance with the consti-
tuition.
President Long ruled that the point
of order was not we'll taken.
An appeal from this decision was
taken, and, upon standing vote, the
chair was not sustained, and the reso'
luton was ruled out.
TIE resolution respecting the use
of the militia and Pinkerton men was,
however, adopted.

The Opening or Parliament DulIer
Than UguaI-ChurehIll's Seat.


LONDON, January 27.-The scenes at
the opening OF Parliament today were
duller than those which usually attend
that event. The crowds about the
buildings showed little, If any, enthu-
siasm, and the members were evident
ly uncertain as regards tho future.
Lord Randolph Churchill, when he
first entered the House Of Commons,
tried to take the coveted seat below
the gangway, which he formerly occu-
pied. He found, though, that he had
been forestalled by the 1t. Hon. Henry
Chaplin, whose hat was in the seat.
Lord Randolph lifted the hat, ex-
amined it closely, and read Mr.. Chap.
Inns card fer full minute, then smiled
and took back seat. 1t is notorious
that feud exists between L I'd Ran.
dolph and Mr.. Chaplin. The speech
from the throne excited but little in
terest.
The Parnellites after TIE reading Of
the Queens speech, held a conference
and discussed the advisability Of offer
ing an amendment to the address in
reply to it. They adj ourned without
coming to the decision.
Mr.. W. H. Smith, First Lord OF the
Treasury, gave notice in the House Of
Commons of the governments inten'
ton to introduce measures for the re-
form OF rules OF Parliamentary pro.
ceedure and said he would ask faCili
ties for giving precedence to the con.
sideration OF these me ssures 80 that
they may be at once discussed from
day to day.
Mr.. Gladstone reached the House a
4:30 o'clock. He was greeted witt
great enthusiasm by the people or
the way from his residence. Mr.. Par
nell entered the house and reached
his seat unobserved.

THE SUPREME COURT.
Former Decisions ON Taxation of
Railroad Lands Rea Affirmed.

The supreme court handed down de-
cision yesterday reafiirning number of
former decisions regarding the taxation of
railroad lands. The court holds as hereto
fore. that railroad lands are not taxable
until actually sold and conveyed in fee
simple, that it is not taxable while under
contract for sale. Following is the syllabus:
In the matter of the proceedings to ELL
force payment of the taxes on real estate
remaining delinquent on the first Monday
in January, 1886, Tor the county Of Stevens,
state of Minnesota:
Syllabus-First division of the st. Paul &
Pacific Railroad Company VS.. Paroher, and
other cases followed, holding that the eXemp-
ton from ordinary taxation originally created
in favor of the Minnesota & Pacific Railroad
company passed with the lands to
which it was appendant to the st.
Paul Il Pacific Railroad company
and to the first division of the st. Paul & Pa
citc railroad company. That right of ex-
emption being contract between the state
nd the corporation, the act of March 2, 1868
Chapter 9, Special Laws, modifying that ex-
empton was Intellectual until accepted by
the corporation. 1t not appearing that this
was accepted until after the act of March 4,

parties that This respondent succeeded to the
ownership of certain lands formerly granted
to and held by the Minnesota & Pacific Rail-
road company and its successors, and to the
exemption from ordinary taxation formerly
enjoyed by those corporations and pertaining
to such lands. Held that the title remaining
in the respondent after it had contracted to
sell such lands (the purchase price being still
unpaid, the conditions of the purchase being
ance with the terms of the act of March 4,
1865, from sale for taxes. Held, following
former decisions, that the provisions OF law
relating to such exemption Originally Gre
ated prior to the adoption of the constitution)
are not unconstitutional. The act of March

Labor Orders Fighting.

PITTsBURG, Pa. March 2.-The recent
dispute at Mingo between the Amagamated
association of iron and steel workers and
the Knights of Labor, was only the begin
ming of general war between the two
great labor organizations. 1t is the inten-
ton of W. II. Bailey, of the Knights of
Labor general executive board, to take inl-
mediate steps for the formation of a national
district assembly Of iron and steel workers.
which will have absolute control of all the
affairs of iron and steel workers, just as
National District Assembly 1876 has charge
of the miners affairs. Speaking of his
prospects of success in this new aggressive
movement. Mr. Bailey says:
This trouble at Mingo will have good ten
dency in our favor. 1t will consolidate the
Knights of Labor iron and steel workers. and
bring more of them into our ranks. 1t is not
generally known, but it is nevertheless the
fact, that the amalgamated has only about
| one-fourth of the craft in their ranks; we
have nearly the same number, ard so there
remains fully one-half of the craft unorgan-
lied. We shall proceed to organize local as
semblies as fast as possible. and will soon be
stronger than any other association.

ANNIE oSBORN.s OVERDOSE.
The COrOner's jury Has No Power
To Say Whether The Druggist is
tn

The death of Annie Osborn. at 81 East
Ninth street. from an overdose OF coichi-
cum root, was investigated by coroner's
jury yesterday and verdict that the young
lady came to her death from Inflammation
of the stomach superinduced by OH over
dose of the fluid extract of calehcum root,
was returned. The physicians who made
the poSt-mortem eX animation testified be-
fore the jury. Mary de Wallace and Della
Osborn. relatives of the deceased, gave
evidence with respect to the purchase of
the poison by the young lady for rheumatic
pains, and Miss Della Osborn Swore posi-
lively that the package was labeled ''colchi-
cum root" and nothing more. Mr.. Men
ter. the registered drug clerk who put up
the package, testified that he labeled it
plainly ''colchcum rOOt-poison," and told
the young lady when she applied for it that it
should be stepped in water, and not more
than teaspoonfui taken for dose. w.
V. Hawkins, the clerk, was called and
could not swear whether the package was
labeled poison or not.
The jury, in returning their verdict,
stated that it was only in their power to
find where. when and by what means Miss
Osborn came to her death, and there was
no evidence to show that the druggist was
in any way responsible for her death, and
if the druggist had failed to comply with
the law i'll not informing the young lady as
to the character of the drug, the plosecu-
ton rested with the authori ties.
MR.. MILLS STATEMENT.
G. w. Mills, an intimate friend of the
family, takes exceptions to the reports pub
lished in the local papers, and last night
made the following statement:
Miss Osborn was taken sick within an
hour after taking the medicine. She did not
purchase the stuff herself, but sent her
younger sister, Della, after il. She asked for
5 cents worth of colchicum root She was
waited upon by young boy named A. W.
Hawkins. He was unable to find the root,
and the registered clerk, Menter came and
found it for her. 1t was done up in an ordi-
nary package and labeled ''Colchicum Ri"
but nothing was marked on the label desig-
mating ii as poisonous.
DR.. Eastman was called and was told
that the girl had taken some medicine. The
paper had been destroyed and it was neces-
sary to go to the drug store to find out
what it was, as the girl had forgotten.
Then for the first time she was told that
the root was poisonous and was given in
structions for its use. l went there the
next day and asked for 5 cents worth of
colchcun root. l was waited upon by a
young man whose name | think was
Croker. He gave me the poisonous stuff
without any label or Instructions / have
the package yet to prove what / have said.
| The coroner didn't call for additional proof
that the package was not labeled poison.
| thotgh Such proof was in the house at the
time; consequently the verdict Is not as
